  This city series continues with Stratford-Upon-Avon, birthplace of the brilliant bard. A quaint and cute tourist town today, Shakespeare's Stratford was far from pleasant and Terry Deary reveals the civil war struggles and brutal beheadings that made its history so horrible. Readers can explore all the horrible highlights of the town using the frightful fold-out map, including spooky Sheep Street, home of an awful axeman, a weird witch and possibly the most haunted house in England.
